Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Tobias is a Senior Software Engineer based in Metro Manila with a decade of experience and a strong fintech focus, currently helping Reap build robust payment and financial systems. He blends front-end React and TypeScript skills with backend work (including Laravel and modern lightweight backends), having shipped money-movement features, migration efforts, and performance optimizations that tamed poorly generated SQL and algorithmic bottlenecks. Known for applying clean code and software design patterns, he also brings a practical testing mindset with Jest unit and integration tests. Early work spans OCR-driven document processing and leading small product teams to deliver prototypes and customer-facing web apps, showing he can move between hands-on engineering and product-oriented design. Colleagues value his appetite for continuous learning and knowledge-sharing across the stack, with a penchant for translating messy legacy systems into maintainable platforms.
